Chapter 36: Chapter 36
TAKEN thirty five
He knocked on Flora's door and she opened immediately like she was expecting him. He stood by the door. He didn't want her to think he was a pervert. The other day too, he had tried kissing her, now he was caught with his brothers wife. He was sure there was so much to talk about.
"I can explain" was the first thing that he said to her. She didn't look too bothered about what she saw, but he needed to make things clear to her
"What you saw was."
"For real boss. Its none of my business. I shouldn't have come in at that time"Flora apologized again.
Allen stared at her for some moment, she didn't really seem too interested in the topic, so he didn't bother either " That is the last time something like that would happen again"he said like he was assuring her of something more between them. She nod and gave a short smile.
"Yes. Earlier, I was In your mum's room and I saw some pictures that fell out of her bag and I saw your dad in it. I think she's been stalking him for long"
Allen seemed to be surprised at the news. His mum always seem to never care. But now she was stalking? He didnt know why that sounded funny to him at the same time it upset him too. If she's been stalking him for this long, why didnt she own up to her actions. There would have been a better reunion that this.
"Thanks. I feel better that she doesn't hate him like I thought" he said to Flora. She nods in agreement too. There was awkward silence between them. She didnt know what to say to him and neither did he. But he could not stop imagining how Flora caught him and Stella. He didnt even know what was running through her mind. Was she going to tell. She clearly said she won't
"I'll get going" he broke the silence and moved to the door. He stopped there and turned back to her. "I'm really sorry you had to see that" he said and moved out of her room. Flora gasped. The awkward moment with her boss was terrifying, not after what she saw. How would she make him believe, she was not thinking about it. Well was she? Its Marcus wife. Why?

Immediately Allen left the room, Flora ran to her phone, but was disappointed. She had called Yvonne almost 15 and she had not returned any call. She worried too much about their connection and was sad that they don't even get to talk everyday. But nothing was more obnoxious than that tonight, there was no one too sooth her or satisfy her tonight. She need Yvonne, she needed to sextext her, Yvonne never misses her call, not even a sextext one. But she's not responding to any of her calls and her message. Flora caressed her self sorely. She missed her.

Jenifer misses Marcus. She missed him so much, she wanted to go to his house and see him. But he had explained some things to her and she knows what he's going through too. She was mourning Jane and she still needed him to warm her worries. In so many ways she could think of. She picks up her phone and dialed his number.

Bella and Clark seemed to have settled their differences as Bella laid on her husband's chest in their room. After yesterday outing with him. She could really tell how and why feelings bounce back. She hated all the wasted years she had all this while and would love to relive this days.
Entering into their room quietly. Stella was with flowers, Allen was with a cake and Marcus was with a little gift as they chose today as an anniversary for their parents. Flora started with a song and they all joined in as the couple begins to wake up.
Bella smiled widely as she opens her eyes to what they were up to, she was highly impressed wiry her children's wake up plan and she couldn't stop blushing. Clark laid where he was and couldn't stop smiling too. He had imagined a day like this and it finally came. But it just didnt last for him and he wished it did. Everyone wished it.
